Many talented and magical people attend Convocation, and often offer wisdom, enlightenment, and a sharing of comradery and information in their presentations. Our schedule is robust, while providing a lot of friendly down-time to reconnect with friends, mother nature, and the TOI/FOI community. No matter what your spiritual practice is, we are inclusive, not exclusive. First-timers are especially welcome. We hope you will enjoy all that our Center for the Divine Feminine has to offer.

Join us at the Temple of Isis Dinner Theater for an evening of Ancient Egyptian Myth and Mystery.

The cycle of stories known as the Osirian Resurrection was the most important part of Ancient Egyptian myth. It was central to their religion for over 3,000 years. The myth of the death of Osiris and his resurrection by Isis became the foundation of the faith of the Egyptian people confirming their belief in a life after death.

We will revive the myth of Isis and Osiris as they enact their drama of death and life, renewal, remembering and resurrection. We offer this at the perfect time of approach of winter. The time, also of Samhain, to counterbalance and complete the Beltane celebration of May.

Wear Egyptian costume and become a living part of the drama as it unfolds around us! We attendees – as initiates – will be able to partake in the Horus/Osiris’ resurrection, purging ourselves of past ills, and entering a new life.

A special talk by Marylyn Motherbear will precede dinner – leading a discussion on the common factors between ancient Egyptian myth and calendar with the Celtic Neo-Pagan Greenman and Samhain traditions.

Contact Priestess Ann Brigit Waters if you wish to participate as a “player” (we need acolytes, dancers, Temple servers) or attend as an initiate. The cost of this evening includes dinner, breakfast, and an overnight in the Isis Lodge (shared room) of $155 with all profits benefiting the Temple. Email Annie Waters your RSVP with your phone number included.

That’s our latest news. Stay tuned for more events to be added for our FALL/WINTER season!
